After receiving several guestbook and contact us emails asking about Crazyguyonabike.com yesterday and the day before I posted the following message to the International Bicycle Touring Mailing List and bikeforums.net last night (July 6, 2005).
Hi.
Neil Gunton and I just had a very enjoyable phone call that lasted quite a while! I am posting this message on Neil's behalf.
The bad news is that the crazyguyonabike.com web site is currently down. Neil has been experiencing hardware problems with his web server. He spent the last few days trying to troubleshoot the problem to rule out both hardware and software. Tonight some disks are being replaced in the server to hopefully eliminate the problem.
Neil will be spending tonight and probably tomorrow rebuilding the software to get the site back up and running so the good news is that the site should be back in the next day or two.
Neil believes that all content has been successfully backed up as well as the email messages that had been received before the site went down. If you have recently sent an email to the site to update a journal then you may receive a "bounce" message saying that the message was undelivered. Once the site is back then simply resending the original message should correct the problem.
Neil apologies for the site being down for so long. Personally I am just happy to know that it will be back soon for all of us to enjoy.

An additional update has been posted to the same locations as before as follows: (July 8, 2005)
I just conversed with Neil again. Unfortunately problems continue and the new estimate for the return of Crazyguyonabike.com is either Saturday or Monday.
Unfortunately/Fortunately I leave on my tour around Lake Michigan starting this coming Sunday so I will be unlikely to be able to provide additional updates after that time.
